(Closes: #485095). + * [88bb2fc] Fix generation of broken output on ia64 when input is piped in + + On ia64, flex appears to generate a completely different (and broken) + output depending on whether the input file is specified using shell + redirection or via a pipe. + + This was traced back commit 3971e1a917548977cff71418a7c3575ffbc9571f, + by Alex Nixon <alex.nixon@citrix.com>: VFS: increase pseudo-filesystem + block size to PAGE_SIZE. PAGE_SIZE on ia64 kernels is larger than most + architectures - 16K is what most distributions (including Debian) + use. An effect of the above changeset, as verified by strace, is that + the read() and write() system calls issued by flex on a pipe will use + this bigger size. fread() appears to be properly hiding the actual + read size and is returning 8192 byte buffers to flex upon request. I + verified by this by instrumenting YY_INPUT to compare the fread data + with the original input file. + + Its probably useful to note that the corruption happening here is that + the last 382 lines of the input file is being prefixed to the output + file. The only differences in the remainder of the file are the #line + numbers. I've also found that bumping YY_READ_BUF_SIZE up to 16384 + seems to workaround the problem - but that may just be putting it back + into hiding. + + The tradeoff here is between correct operation, by making flex's + buffer at least as big as the system buffer -- and not bigger, so that + we do not waste memory. At this point, fixing the isue seems more + important than worrying that flex consumes and additional 8KB of + memory. + + This fix unblocks RC bugs on other packages. + + Bug fix: "Generates broken output on ia64 when input is piped vs. shell + redirection", thanks to Chris Lamb.
